Açıklama

The ethical perspective of analysis that aims for the subject to assume responsibility for its own desire and not to renounce it. For Lacan, ethics is not a matter of normative conformity but of fidelity to one’s singular desire. This requires not so much the complete 'cure' of the symptom as the establishment of a different relation to the symptom and to jouissance.
